Solution Preview

1. A more volatile liquid means it escapes into the gas phase from the liquid phase at a lower atmospheric pressure. The equilibrium vapor pressure is when the VP = atmospheric pressure (ie- the boiling point). So, as volatility increases, the eq vp decreases.

2. To form hydrogen bonds, you must have molecules with a lone pair of electrons (generally on N, O, S, or a ...
